Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Bognor Regis shopping experience:

1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Bognor Regis offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Bognor Regis at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.

2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about

3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Bognor Regis? Wrong! If the Bognor Regis is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.

4. Questions - Got a question about Bognor Regis then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....

5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Bognor Regis? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Bognor Regis and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.

6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Bognor Regis wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.

7. Feedback - happy with your Bognor Regis then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.

8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Bognor Regis site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site

9. Contact - got a question about Bognor Regis, or want to leave a comment then check out the sites contact page. Reputable companies have them and respond.

10. Payment - ready to pay for your Bognor Regis, then use your credit card or PayPal! Be aware of companies that don't accept them, there may be genuine reasons but given the huge amount of choice you have when buying online there is no reason at all not to buy via credit card or PayPal.

History Bognor Regis was originally named just "Bognor", being a fishing (and one time, smuggling) village until the 18th century, when it was converted into a resort by Sir Richard Hotham. Tourism gradually took off over the next hundred years, the area being chosen as an ideal location for George V of the United Kingdom to convalesce in during 1929 , The King and Queen actually staying at Craigwell House http://www.localhistories.org/bognor.html Aldwick; as a result, the King bestowed the Regis http://www.bognor-regis.co.uk/opus18.html suffix on Bognor.

Local legend suggests the King's last words, upon being told that he would soon be well enough to revisit the town, were 'Bugger Bognor!'.

The Church of England, parish church is dedicated to St Wilfrid while the local Catholic Church is dedicated to Our Lady of Sorrows.

Town Ordnance Survey map, showing Bognor RegisBognor Regis has a large town centre, much of which has either been pedestrianized or made pedestrian friendly. Since the end of World-War-Two the town has been subject to some piece-meal commercial redevelopment, notably in the early 1960s when a new shopping parade and road (called Queensway), a health-centre and a high-rise block of flats were built on land just north-west of the High Street. In the three decades between 1950 and 1980 much residentialdevelopment took place to the west and north of the town, since then mostly in-fill development has taken place, mostly redeveloping land that had formerly been used for commercial business.

The town has several areas, and buildings, that still firmly link it with its past. Good examples, and prominent local landmarks, are the Royal Norfolk Hotel and Hotham Park.

Tourism & Leisure Butlins Holiday Camp Billy Butlin opened one of his Butlins in Bognor in 1960. The camp later became known as Southcoast World until 1998 and is now known as Butlins Bognor Regis Resort. In 2004 Butlins erected a large indoor water leisure park, the buildings construction sharing aspects similar with the Millennium dome in London. In 2005, a new £10m hotel, called "The Shoreline" was unveiled at the Bognor Regis resort http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4158560.stm No place like holidaying at home.

Birdman of Bognor The Birdman is an annual competition for human-powered 'flying' machines held each summer in Bognor Regis. Contestants launch themselves from the end of the pier; a prize being awarded to the one who glides the furthest distance. Rarely taken completely seriously, the event provides competitors with an opportunity to construct improbable machines complete with outlandish dress. The spectacle draws a sizeable crowd in addition to the local media. Inaugurated in nearby Selsey in 1971, the Birdman transferred to Bognor in 1978 when it had outgrown its original location. Such celebrities as Richard Branson are famous for taking the leap of faith.

Theatre & Arts The Alexandra_Theatre%2C_Bognor_Regis is a 352 seat auditorium showing a variety of entertainment from comedy to drama to pantomime. It replaced the Esplanade Theatre in the late 1970s, as of 2006/7 it's long term future is in some doubt, it's location being in part of the local regeneration plans.
